There are great rewards that come along with being a foster parent, yet there are also great challenges that can leave you feeling depleted, alone, and discouraged. The many burdens of a foster parent's day - hurting children, struggling biological parents, and a broken system - are only compounded by the many burdens of a foster parent's heart - confusion, anxiety, heartache, anger, and fear.

With the compassion and insight of a fellow foster parent, Jamie C. Finn helps you see your struggles through the lens of the gospel, bringing biblical truths to bear on your unique everyday realities. In these short, accessible chapters, you'll find honest, personal stories and practical lessons that provide encouragement and direction from God's word as you walk the journey of foster parenting.

Great read with a purpose for each and everyone one of us fostering parents. Our families are chosen even before we knew who we would welcome. GOD is the ALPHA and the OMEGA in each situation, in each life, in OUR LIVES. This book opened up my viewpoints to many different perspectives.

This book came at a much-needed time and I listen to it through Audible over 2 to 3 days. It touched my heart in so many ways and helped me see the bigger picture and realize that God has everything in control even though I may not see right now. Definitely recommend this book!

This book, while intended for foster parents, is full of wonderful words for all parents. I laughed, cried, and had my toes stepped on. Thank you, Jamie, for writing about your experiences and reminding us of God’s faithfulness through this crazy journey of fostering.

Great book for all parents!

I loved this! As a foster mom who’s been through it - anyone considering foster care should be reading this book!

If you are a Foster Parent or are close to a Friend/family member who is- this is a must read. I love the way scripture is weaved in thru the dialogue, the raw picture of the chaos but also the narrative of heartache and messiness of foster care but also the beauty of it all. The gains, the losses, the validation of feelings- everything in this book is just a big hug to a foster parent.

Foster Parent Must Read

I signed up for a free trial of Audible just for this book and I was not disappointed. As a foster mom, I heard and felt every emotion as Jamie read. The pain, the joy, the courage, the fear - everything a foster parent goes through practically everyday.

This book was an impeccable reminder of why I do what I do, and gave me the confidence boost to keep at it - that God has called all of us to fight for the ones overlooked.

If you’re a foster parent, read this book as a reminder that you’re not alone. That it’s hard but you’re doing it and you’re supported by community and by God.

If you’re not a foster parent, read this book to help you glimpse at the real issues surrounding all that comes with caring for kids who aren’t yours but who you love like they are and fight for like they are. It’s a wild ride and we need you!

Truly Perfect and Perfectly True
